Description:

    This catalog  contains a survey of a  rectangular area of 10x6 degrees
    in galactic coordinates (95.5{deg} < l <  101.5{deg} ; 28{deg}  <  b <
    38{deg}) in the radio continuum in the direction of the north ecliptic
    pole  (RA=18h,  Dec=66.5{deg})  at 11.1 cm wavelength.  The survey was
    conducted with the 100m radio telescope of the Max Planck Institut fur
    Radioastronomie.  469 sources  were detected  with an  integrated flux
    density greater than 11 mJy,  and with an angular resolution of 4.35'.
    The survey is believed to be complete to at least the 35 mJy level and
    can be  used for comparison with deep  surveys in other wavelengths of
    this  area.

Note (1): This column gives the sequential number of the source. There are
          469 sources contained in this survey. Source numbers are ordered
          by increasing right ascension.

Note (2): This column gives the integrated 2695 MHz (11.1 cm) flux density
          in mJy. Sources were fitted by procedures described in Reich et al.
          (1984A&AS...58..197R), where two Gaussian fits were made along the
          major and minor axis of an ellipse which fitted the source
          structure. Parameters of these fits are given in the size column
          described below.

Note (3): This column gives the apparent source size as measured with a
          Gaussian beam (HPBW = 4.35' +/- 0.1'). The following
          abbreviations are used:

            PL = point-like source, e.g. smaller than 4.5'x4.5'
            SE = slightly extended source, e.g. smaller than 5'x5'
            ** = uncertain parameters.

          Note: When these symbols are used, they are given in the middle
          of the 12-character field.

          In case of extended sources, large and small axis are listed in
          arcmin and the position angle of the large axis in Galactic
          coordinates is given.

Note (4): A four-digit code describing the error class of the fitting
          procedure is given in this column as follows:

           1st digit:  positional error in units of 10"
           2nd digit:  flux density error in units of 10%
           3rd digit:  size error in units of 20"
           4th digit:  error of the position angle in 5 degrees
